Need some help on ATV2 - mattay32 - 2013-03-03

Hello everyone, I was after some advice. With XBMC, if im streaming from my computer to apple tv2 will the sound be dolby digital? Also will it play 1080p films? Thanks for any advice tips etc

Depends on what you mean by streaming. Are you planning to use Airplay or share a folder and then play it from XBMC? Playing 1080p works most of the time, but not with all movies, and you only display 720p. Dolby digital works great Smile

I was thinking of sharing from my macbook. Is this possible?

Yup, setup a NFS share, and connect with xbmc Wink
